Others will most likely provide a more helpful answer, but just in case not, one of the potential problems is with the version of the JRE you’re running Netbeans with. I believe before Java 17, things like fonts didn’t scale well. So running with Java 17+ might help. Plus in Windows (I’m a mac/linux user) isn’t there a font related display setting that you can increase? Lastly, when I asked this question a few years ago, a kind soul gave some arguments you could give to Netbeans in its config file to help. Google searches for “netbeans” “quad resolution” and “tiny” might yield useful results.
